Getting Bigger

Anna's big thing right now is that she LOVES to make breakfast. She calls herself the family "cooker." It started out putting waffles in the toaster and she is now making chocolate milk and cereal. It is great that she enjoys doing it and some mornings will go straight downstairs to get started. The only problem with that is that she will start at 6:30 before anyone else is up or thinking about breakfast. The other problem I have found is that she gets the dishes out of the dishwasher, which usually gets run every night...but one time it didn't. oops! She means well!

Anna has taught Mary-Jane how to slide down the steps head first on their stomachs. They always start by poking their head down the first step and yelling "HI!!!" until they get someone's attention. Then they giggle and continue down the stairs.

For Mary-Jane's birthday we got her a big-girl bed. We found a bed similar to Anna's on craigslist that we fixed up a little bit. We still need to fix the one post, but I think they look pretty cute in the room together. I am still thinking about making canopies for them, but we will see. It is the first night for her in the bed, so we will see how it goes. She has been in a toddler bed for a while now, so it shouldn't be an issue. I can't believe she is going to be 2 on Sunday!
